NO CAPO
[Intro]
A-G then D-A
[Verse 1]
A E A
Every time I'm doing what I want to
A E A
Somebody comes and tells me it's wrong
D A
Whenever I'm doing just as I please
E D A
Somebody cuts me down to my knees
E D A
Yeah, somebody cuts me down to my knees
[Verse 2]
A E A
In a time when everybody feels entitled
A E A
Why can't I feel entitled too?
D A
Somebody took away my god given right
E D A
I guess God must have gave it to you
E D A
Yeah, I guess God must have slipped it to you
[Chorus]
D A
Stop what you're doing and get back in line
E D A
I hear this from people all the time
D A
If we can't be happy then you can't be too
E D A
I'm tired of being told what to do
E D A A-E-A
Yeah, I'm sick of being told what to do
[Verse 3]
A E A
There are children today who were lied to
A E A
Told the world is rightfully theirs
D A
They can have what they want, whenever they want
A E D A
They take like Caesar and nobody cares
E D A
Live like Caesar and nobody cares
[Verse 4]
A E A
I can't bring myself to take without penance
E A
Or atonements or sweat from my brow
D A
Though the world may be spoiled and getting worse every day
E D A
Don't they feel like they're cheated somehow
E D A
I feel like I've been cheated somehow
[Chorus]
D A
Stop what you're doing and get back in line
E D A
I hear this from people all the time
D A
If we can't be happy then you can't be too
E D A
I'm tired of being told what to do
E D A
Yeah, I'm sick of being told what to do
[Instrumental]
A-G then D-A
[Verse 5]
A E A
I guess nobody on earth is entitled
E A
Not mothers, not children, not kings
D A
Not a one single person on God's golden shore
E D A
Is entitled to one single thing
E D A
We don't deserve a single damn thing
